I kind of use it to a significant degree as a "file manager for images," so more often than not I'm on the file pane, much more so than the folder pane, but apparently there's no way to change the default focus, besides eventually changing the source code somehow and compiling it. Preferably with the default-focus-here-or-there being an option, so everyone can have it the way they chose. But for now the best I can do is having this xdotool wrap-around script on $PATH, named geeqie as well:...
Maybe one can get totally used to it, but the in-between/trying out can be annoyingly troublesome.
Despite not having a bug found on tint2 (unhidden auto-hiding panels being covered/"popping-under" always-on-top windows, instead of above), it doesn't feel the same in a significant way, but I could get over it.

1. Understanding SlackBuilds:
SlackBuilds are shell scripts that automate the process of compiling and packaging...
Standard user account
Just like in Windows, it's a bad idea to run everything as administrator (aka "root").
Run the `# adduser` command to make a standard account for yourself.
Textmode multitasking
You don't have to run `startx` as soon as you're logged in: use the Alt-F1, Alt-F2, Alt-F3 combos to switch between terminals.
Disabling history in the shell
If you're like me, you don't want the history to be preserved across sessions....
